I have decided to blog about something completely different. I'm really not sure where this is going to take me but please bare with me while I get this off of my chest. The middle of the school year last year we enrolled Corbin into Head Start to get him started on speach therapy, and to be able to learn as much as possible. To my surprise, I actualy had a number of people tell me that they would never send their child to school early like I did. That they have to go to school their whole child hood and why not let them be a kid and stay home and play. In my personal opinion, while your child is sitting at home, playing by themselves, not learning to share, nor being around other children, my son is filling his head with so much knowledge at and early age. ThatS something NO ONE can EVER take away from him. Besides, how many 3 year olds do you know, that can:
write their name,
know theirs,
mommy and daddys FULL names,
their address,
(working on mommys cell phone number).
can count extrememly far. i think to either 25 or 30.
knows all shapes,
colors,
not to mention he does his chores very well.
and a list of many other things that this child can do
Allen and I are so glad that we were able to send corbin to school when he turned 3. (hoping no one takes this the wrong way!) I love being able to show people how much stuff my 3 year old knows. MOMMY LOVES HER PREEMIE MAN!
Its amazing how we were told when you were born that you wouldnt make it but a few hours. Then we were told you wouldnt survive the night. WELL, those few hours turned into nights. Those nights turned into weeks, as the weeks into months. MY BABY CAME HOME. he had many attachments when he came home, but he did come home. 4 1/2 months of me worrying, and you fighting for you life to live. your a very smary young man Corbin. I dont care that all those people thought we were crazy for sending you to school early, but look where its gotten you. putting that preemie brain to work. I LOVE YOU SON!
